Where I Was

I've been away. Left the small town where I live where there is virtually nothing, and went to a mid-sized city. Where there is virtually nothing.

We took advantage of the long weekend and headed west to relive the industrial revolution, breathe a little coal smoke, and ride an iron horse or two.

It was peak foliage in those Pennsylvania hills. There was a Starbucks at the neighboring mall. And the weather was nice, albeit cool.

The hotel was full due to a marathon that was taking place on Sunday morning. It had a pool and a hot tub off the lobby, and we had a suite complete with video games.

The little boy was in 7th-Heaven.

More tomorrow. With pictures.
